The problem in my book is that even if you believe Trump would do all of that and you happened to dislike the idea, Harris' plan for mending household economy is imposing price caps on domestic products.

Price capping is one of those things that sound great, lots of people have tried it, and it has ended up generating a lot of scarcity issues among the capped products. Even right-wings groups have been burnt with price capping.

Price capping is a thing that kept Spain in the dirt up to the late 50s. IMO a candidate that says she wants to cap the price of food is about as good as a candidate that says she wants to detonate all the nuclear weapons she has in their silos.
